  • In favor of the Type-C product supply chain, the European Union announced that all devices must use Type-C interfaces
    Jan 20, 2024 In favor of the Type-C product supply chain, the European Union announced that all devices must use Type-C interfaces
    The EU has always been committed to green and environmental protection, such as the pursuit of electronic products interface unity, and the big red USB-C is obviously the best choice at present, so the EU decided to pass a decree so that all electronic products must use USB-C interface, the deadline is 2023, and by 2024, the EU finally announced the law into effect. All electronic products sold in the EU must use the USB-C interface. The European Commission said on social media that through unremitting efforts, the USB-C interface will become the standard of electronic products in 2024, which we believe means better charging standards, cable waste will be greatly reduced, and everyone will be more convenient to find a charger. The EU says that in the future, all USB-C chargers should be able to charge electronic devices with USB-C ports without compatibility issues. In this EU list, including mobile phones, tablets, digital cameras, headphones, game consoles, e-books, keyboards, mice, mobile GPS and other devices must use USB-C interface, and by 2026, all laptops must use USB-C interface. The EU's move to unify all its interfaces is a huge step forward. After all, in the past due to the immaturity of technology, there were dozens of interfaces on the market, and later with the rise of USB, basically Micro-USB, Apple lighting and Type-C have become the three major universal interfaces, and Micro-USB is almost eliminated, the remaining biggest resistance is Apple lighting interface. For the EU move, Apple expressed strong opposition, saying that the unified interface will only erase personality. Of course, the huge market of the European Union has also made Apple have to lower its head and adopt the Type-C interface in the iPhone 15 Pro, and with the landing of this bill, we can casually find a Type-C line in the future to achieve charging and data transmission of digital products.   Aichie Tech is specialized in the production and processing of various types of wire harnesses, such as: Type-C wire, new energy wire harnesses, robot wire harnesses, industrial equipment wire harnesses, injection molding wire harnesses, etc. The factory introduced automation equipment, and passed the ISO9001, ISO13485,IATF16949 and other treatment system certification; Aichie for UL, CUL listed companies, to provide customer product protection, reliable quality and competitive prices, welcome to consult! sales03@aichie.com

  • Xiaomi--Xiaomi makes cars 1000 days! Lei Jun major announcement
    Dec 26, 2023 Xiaomi--Xiaomi makes cars 1000 days! Lei Jun major announcement
    On December 24, Xiaomi Auto's Weibo account and video number were launched one after another. Yesterday evening, Lei Jun, as the founder of Xiaomi, also posted @mi car on his personal micro blog. This series of operations has also made many industry insiders speculate that millet cars will have major news.   On December 26, Xiaomi's official microblog and Lei Jun's microblog simultaneously issued a statement saying: A technical conference will be held at 2 PM on December 28. At the same time, it is also accompanied by a publicity picture on the theme of "crossing". From the picture, it can be seen that the background of the publicity picture is the overhead perspective view of the millet car, and the design details of the front suspension, balance bar, anti-tilt bar, front spare car, and front motor can be clearly seen in the picture. For the hidden intelligence of this propaganda picture, it has also attracted many netizens' speculation, and some netizens have marked out the details of the poster.   Some automotive media comments said: this configuration of the Xiaomi car can not be sold at a very low price. Some digital bloggers also participated in the comments that the cabin floor beam arrangement, the battery should use CTP or CTB technology, from the tire texture, like Michelin PSEV, the front suspension front double fork arm, the rear probability is five linkages, and from the organ accelerator pedal point of view, the positioning is more sports. In this way, the cost of SU7 is indeed higher.   For the arrival of Xiaomi cars, Lei Jun said in his personal microblog today that it has been 1000 days since Xiaomi's official propaganda car was made, and many people asked "how is Xiaomi making cars so slow", and friends said, "I heard that electric cars are easy to make, and small companies with two or three hundred people can make cars in less than two years." In response to the slow building of Xiaomi cars, Lei Jun responded in the article: Today's automobile industry, it is not difficult to save a car. Just get a car, reverse engineer it, change the look, and we'll be done in no time. But with 200 new cars released every year on the market today, does Xiaomi need to save another one? Therefore, when the Xiaomi car team was just formed, we had a meeting for three days and three nights, and only discussed a simple question: to join Xiaomi, what kind of car do you want to build? Later, all the staff agreed: there is no shortcut to building a car. Adhere to the forward development, starting from the underlying core technology, ten times investment, build a good car! These technologies will also be fully displayed to everyone at the Xiaomi Car technology conference on December 28. Regarding the content of the Xiaomi automobile technology conference on December 28, Lei Jun also revealed on Weibo that this time, only the technology is issued, not the product.   It is worth noting that since Lei Jun announced the construction of c...

  • Tesla patented a modular wiring system intended to eliminate wiring harnesses and CAN buses
    Dec 08, 2023 Tesla patented a modular wiring system intended to eliminate wiring harnesses and CAN buses
    The Tesla Cybertruck revolutionized the automotive industry with its groundbreaking 48V electrical system and steering-by-wire system. Of course, if the wiring harness does not have a new way of wiring, communication methods do not have a new change, this revolutionary progress is impossible to achieve.   Tesla Motors has recently applied for a patent and is eyeing wiring harnesses. Cybertruck may look a little underwhelming, and it doesn't feel as good as Musk previously said it would.   However, Cybertruck's advanced technology did not disappoint. One of them is the 48V low-voltage electrical system(low-voltage electrical wire harness) used in production vehicles for the first time. By dramatically improving and simplifying the electrical architecture, Tesla will be able to build the next generation of electric vehicles at a better cost.     Tesla has announced that Cybertruck's cabling architecture will be significantly simplified compared to previous Tesla electric vehicles. Tesla achieves this by using multiple local controllers connected to a high-speed communication bus instead of connecting each electrical component to a central controller. To understand this situation, it is necessary to talk about traditional vehicles. Typically, every sensor and electrical component on a vehicle must be connected to a central controller and low-voltage system to obtain power. Sometimes, this means complex parts require a lot of wire. Let's take doors for example. It may contain sensors that signal to the car's computer that the car is on, off, or tilted. The same is true for Windows, which have buttons that trigger opening and closing. These switches are connected to the vehicle's controller, which in turn is connected to the window actuator to lower or raise the glass.   That's when we add speakers, airbags, cameras... You'll understand why the harness is so messy. Wires in modern vehicles extend for many kilometers, adding complexity, cost, and weight. To make matters worse, building and installing them is mostly done by hand. These are expensive and time-consuming processes that Tesla wants to eliminate.   That's why it came up with the idea of a distributed controller. Vehicles will be equipped with many local controllers for various functions, rather than a central unit.   Distributed controller For example, a door controller is responsible for putting Windows, speakers, lights, mirrors, and other components into the electrical input before it can work. In this case, the wires are short and can be fully contained within the door assembly. The doors will then be connected to the vehicle's data bus with just two wires, which also provide power to the electrical components. All the complex functions of a door can be achieved with just two wires, compared to more than a dozen in a conventional car, which is what Tesla has done with the Cybertruck.   The electric pickup uses a steer-by-wire system that requires a...

  • Korean battery companies are reducing investment in North America, LG and other announced layoffs
    Nov 30, 2023 Korean battery companies are reducing investment in North America, LG and other announced layoffs
    Wire harness automation: wire harness intelligent manufacturing service platform. Combined with automobile wiring harness manufacturing labor intensive, more labor; The pain points of large staff turnover and poor quality assurance ability. To provide the wire harness people to communicate and learn from each other, so as to achieve the purpose of resource sharing and technology sharing.   As demand in the global electric vehicle industry slows, South Korean battery makers are scaling back their investments and laying off workers in North America. LG Energy Solution announced in November that it would cut 170 jobs at its Michigan plant after launching joint ventures in the US with GM, Honda and Hyundai Motor.   Another South Korean battery maker, SK On, signed an $11 billion deal with Ford Motor in 2021 to advance electric vehicles. SK On laid off more than 100 workers at its U.S. plant in September and delayed plans to build a second plant in Kentucky in a joint venture with Ford. The plant was originally scheduled to begin production in 2026.   The president of an automotive convergence technology institute in South Korea said that the power battery market appears to be undergoing a correction, and there are growing concerns about overcapacity because the industry has invested too much in a short period of time. In recent months, Ford, GM and Tesla have all suspended plans to expand electric vehicle production capacity because consumer demand has been weaker than expected.   LG New Energy said it will cut nearly 10 percent of its workforce at its wholly owned plant in Michigan, but expects a bright future, with plans to hire about 1,000 more workers after the expansion of its Michigan plant is completed in the third quarter of 2024.   Japanese battery giant Panasonic, which supplies batteries for higher-end models such as Tesla's Model S and Model X, has also cut back on domestic production of automotive batteries. Panasonic is continuing to invest in its Nevada plant, which benefits from US subsidies to produce batteries for lower-priced Tesla vehicles. But Panasonic is not slowing down in the U.S. and is considering setting up a third plant in the country.   Aichie provides auto wiring harness , high voltage ev cable assembly and low-voltage auto wiring harness around the world.

  • Many car companies have stopped production at their factories in China
    Oct 24, 2023 Many car companies have stopped production at their factories in China
    Many car companies have stopped production at their factories in China   According to several foreign media reports, a Volkswagen spokesman said on Monday that two production lines at FAW-Volkswagen's Chengdu plant and Changchun plant have been suspended due to a shortage of parts, with no expected recovery time and no closed-loop production planning. In response to the above reports, FAW Volkswagen has not yet replied.       Volkswagen, Toyota and Honda are halting or reducing production at factories in China Nikkei Chinese website reported on November 30 that due to China's strict epidemic lockdown measures, Toyota and Honda and other Japanese car companies were forced to reduce production or stop production. From November 28 to 29, Dongfeng Honda suspended production at three vehicle plants in Wuhan. Toyota spokesman Shino Yamada also said the company was adjusting some production at its factories in China due to a variety of factors, but declined to elaborate.       It can be said that whether it is the quarantine of people at home caused by the epidemic control, or the shortage of core parts and chip shortage caused by various comprehensive factors, it is the "mountain" that is pressing on the current production field of Chinese car companies.   On November 27, Ideal also issued a statement in the official APP, saying that due to the delay in the supply of core parts, some models that should have been delivered at the end of November will be delayed to December. However, Ideal also further said that the original December delivery of the model will not be affected.   But at the same time, it should also be noted that according to the survey of the Passenger Association, from November 1 to 27, the production capacity of domestic car companies was flat last year. "Although some brands in overseas markets have exposed factors such as parts shortage and energy supply interference affecting the overall annual global production forecast, the current production of the Chinese market remains basically stable, and fuel vehicle inventory is absolutely abundant."     Of course, due to the recent rebound of the domestic epidemic, the association also said that the proportion of car dealers closed has increased, which has a greater impact on the flow of exhibition halls and orders in the market. Data show that in the fourth week of November (November 21-27), the overall narrow passenger car market retail sales reached an average of 53,000 vehicles per day, down 31% year-on-year and 32% lower than the average in the fourth week of October this year.   Wuhan Guangzhou area auto factories have closed loop production In fact, due to the frequent occurrence of the domestic epidemic, a number of car companies have launched a closed on-site production strategy.   According to sources, Dongfeng's car factory in Wuhan has once again launched the "first-line production" defense war.   At present,...

  • Tesla's NACS EV connector is expected to standardize the EV charging landscape in the USA
    Jul 31, 2023 Tesla's NACS EV connector is expected to standardize the EV charging landscape in the USA
    The NACS interface is currently leading the global competition, simplifying the EV charging process and putting a single standard in focus for the future.     Us automakers Ford and General Motors will adopt Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS) charging connector as the preferred interface for their upcoming EV models. In the days following GM's June 2023 announcement, a sizable number of charging station companies, including Tritium, and other automakers, including Volvo, Rivian, and Mercedes-Benz, quickly announced their intention to follow suit. Hyundai is also studying the possibility of making changes. This shift will make the Tesla EV connector the standard for electric vehicle charging in North America and beyond. At present, many connector companies offer a variety of interfaces to meet the needs of different automotive manufacturers OEM and regional markets.     Tesla's NACS EV connector   One complicating factor in the widespread adoption of electric vehicles is the lack of a unified EV charging connector. Just as the adoption of Type-C USB connectors has simplified the future of device charging, a universal interface for car charging will enable seamless vehicle charging. Currently, electric vehicle owners must plan to charge at a specific charging station, or use an adapter to charge at an incompatible charging station. In the future, using the Tesla NACS standard, drivers of all electric vehicles will be able to charge at each stop during their journey without using an adapter. Older electric cars and other types of charging ports will be able to connect using Tesla's Magic Dock adapter. However, NACS is not used in Europe, not even by Tesla. Charging infrastructure in Europe uses the CCS T2 standard. Tesla charging stations can also be charged using CCS T2 or European Tesla connectors."       Current charging standards Depending on the region and vehicle manufacturer, the wiring harness world also lists a range of electric vehicle charging connectors currently in use. Cars designed for AC charging use Type 1 and type 2 plugs. Type 1 includes SAE J1772 (J-plug). It has a charging speed of up to 7.4 kW. Type 2 includes the Mennekes or IEC 62196 standard (made in 2018) for European and Asian vehicles and is known as SAE J3068 in North America. It is a three-phase plug with a charging power of up to 43 kW. Electric vehicle charging gun standard   For faster DC charging, use a combined charging system or CCS. This interface adds two high-speed DC fast charging pins to the J1722 Type 1 plug. The CCS2 version is widely used in Australia. The CCS connector provides 500 amps and 1000 volts DC at 350 kW (kW).   The national standard GB/T 20234.2-2015 for electric vehicles in China is another electric vehicle charging connector that offers AC and DC configurations. In Japan, near-traditional CHAdeMo connectors are still used.     Tesla NACS EV charging connec...

  • Recall | Mazda is recalling 340,000 Mazda3 and Mazda CX-3 vehicles in North America due to wear on the pin of the reverse camera wire harness connector
    Jul 24, 2023 Recall | Mazda is recalling 340,000 Mazda3 and Mazda CX-3 vehicles in North America due to wear on the pin of the reverse camera wire harness connector
    On July 20, 2023, more than 340,000 Mazda3 and Mazda CX-3 vehicles were recalled in the United States America and Canada due to a Mazda reverse camera problem.     The 2014-2018 recalled Mazda3 and 2016-2021 Mazda CX-3 rearview mirror images may show flickering or distorted images that do not display properly.   In May 2015, Mazda drew a complaint in the United States for a backup camera problem, and more camera image problems were reported from June 2015 to June 2017. Mazda launched an investigation into the wiring harnesses that connect car cameras after receiving eight additional complaints of faulty reverse cameras.   After an investigation, engineers determined that the rearview camera problem was caused by a worn pin of the reverse camera wire harness connector. Mazda said the rearview mirror wire harness fasteners had a design issue that could damage the wiring harness due to vibration during normal driving and when opening and closing the lift door. Naturally causes the connector pin to wear, resulting in high resistance. This in turn affects image distortion or flicker.   Mazda has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) informing dealers about the diagnosis and repair of the reverse camera problem. However, Transport Canada contacted Mazda about the handling of the backup camera issue as a technical service bulletin.   Transport Canada recommended that Mazda recall the backup cameras, and Mazda decided to fix car wiring harnesses connected to the cameras in 2014-2018 Mazda3 5-door hatchback and 2016-2021 CX-3 vehicles in Canada and the United States.   According to Mazda, the back-up camera problem has led to nine complaints and one report of property damage, but thankfully no claims of death or injury; This is the silver lining of misfortune.   The Mazda reverse camera recall letter will be mailed on September 12th, 2023, and dealers will inspect and possibly replace the rearview camera. Mazda dealers will also install wire harness fastening seals. Mazda officials say the new parts are manufactured using tight seals that protect the wiring harness from damage.
